KINGSTON – A local man was indicted by a Plymouth County grand jury Friday, Feb. 14, for receiving stolen property and related crimes in Kingston, Duxbury and other towns.

Christopher W. Larocque, 26, was indicted on charges of receiving stolen property in East Bridgewater, breaking and entering in the daytime and larceny in a building in Duxbury and two counts of receiving stolen property in Brockton. The date on all these charges is Nov. 2, 2012.

Additionally, he was indicted for receiving stolen property Nov. 5, 2012, in the Kingston case. Kingston Police Chief Maurice Splaine said Larocque’s arrest followed a rash of breaking and entering cases in Kingston and other towns and subsequent investigation by a Kingston officer.

He said Larocque was living on Prospect Street in Kingston when a search warant was executed and he was arrested for receiving stolen property. The officer had checked a database of pawn shops while trying to locate the computers and other stolen goods.

The officer learned that Larocque had pawned what turned out to be stolen goods at a pawn shop in East Bridgewater. Splaine said the serial numbers on the computers matched.
